Comix Zone Speed Run in

[@rdo1991]

Well done Turner. After 20+ years I finally see what’s after stage 2

[@NiblancoNinegro]

😂 and today's kids find the difficulty of the games less because it makes them anxious

[@ganjahousetv3743]

Lol yo trying to make that last jump in level 1 was hard af

[@redpanda416]

People are like: oh this game is so short. Dude trust me, if you don't know this game inside out, it takes days to finish it. Hell, who am I kidding, 90% of the people never finished this game. Nowadays, with emulator you can save, but back in the days, this game had no save and no continue, if you die you are done, most people didn't make pass chapter 1.

[@klubbstyler]

redpanda416 I played it on sega megadrive 2 and wouldnt say it was hard to finish it (ofc not so fast). imo cuthroat island or lion king were a bit harder games to complete.

[@redpanda416]

Yeah I played lion king too, there are some really hard part in that game, but with unlimited continues you can eventually pass them. The hard part for the comic zone is if you get a game over it's really over, you have to start from the very beginning, so you have to make it in one play through.

[@klubbstyler]

redpanda416 but u didnt have infinite amount of lifes / continues on lion king also.

[@tortugadave8765]

Well with Each chapter you complete you get a continue. But I'd say Lion King although with more continues, is a bit harder. Comix Zone is a great game though, took me about an hour to complete it.

[@josukejoestar9048]

When i was a child. I played this game many times and my record was... The begin of the Chapter 2. :(

[@mugglesmonster]

I didn't know this game was beatable let alone speedrunable

[@yittmashups]

Definitely tough, but I remember beating it a few times as a kid. It's such a short game, so you really get to know it well replaying over and over as you die.

[@Redwill85]

So real

[@pzypro6786]

I got to a point where I would clear it in about 25 minutes several times a week for a period of my life lol. This video is so much faster though - was a fun trip down memory lane

[@reignjuste]

the concept of this game was amazing back in the days.I wonder why they dont create something similar nowadays

[@Selrahcthewise]

I beat the game today after watching this and trying to emulate it step by step. Loved this game as a kid, but never finished it. 20 years later, as a 30 year old dude, I finally scratched that itch. Thank you so much for this:)

A very impressive, and hard worked for speed run of a game I loved as a kid. 6 year old me never stood a chance, but damn if I didn't play the first two-three levels all the time just to hear the music. Great job :)

+Pheng Lee I remember that time when I was playing teemo in bronze and then I stood against Sketch Turner on top, harassed him like god and then he suddenly used this airplane and wow I am on the fountain dead. My jaw dropped and I stopped playing this game and got a job, a wife anfd 4 children.

[@johnfakester5527]

@@asmodeojung lmao

[@calvinscheuerman]

When I first saw the title, my first thought was "BULLSHIT!" Goddamn this is impressive... I had this game when I was 6; I didn't actually beat it until almost 20 fucking years later. Watching this was like watching a perfectly choreographed ballet. Especially your paper-airplane throws. Just... Damn, dude.

[@thePot_]

Jesis when I watch this after 22 years, I still feel danger, worry, anxiety, pain and fear of not making it to the next page...

[@sammisabbie]

I'm impressed. a speedrun that doesnt take advantages of glitches and someone whom legitimately beat it without bullshit. I tip my hat to you good sir or madam

[@Kaanin]

I would say using the paper airplane in-between rooms was probably a form of glitch or unintended mechanics. Also using the invincibility frames when you get damaged to pass through certain obstacles e.g. 7:12 seems likes its bypassing the game designers intention for you to destroy obstacles. None of that matters though, since we cant read the game designers minds weather or not something is a glitch is ultimately an opinion. Find and using glitches is a skill of it's own.

[@qmchale5130]

SuperMCPayne The kicks you were talking about against the Flying Creeps, right? Scissor Kick: Down, Up + A Wheel Kick: Up, Down + A Shoulder Smash: Back, Forward + A

[@Just_a_Lad]

Nice speedrun. I personally beat the game for about 21-22 min without rushing that much and honestly I never thought that the paper plane could be used like that. I'm gonna try it.

[@MisterH1984]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THAT AIRPLANE YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I DIED IN THIS GAME EVEN WITH GAME GENIE

[@ShinKyuubi]

Tease for a second game that never came out right there at the end.

[@johntumahab323]

So it looks like the secret of the game is to first know you can do the paper airplane move and then do it in all the right spots.

[@Punpun6745]

Finally beat this game after several years. Could never get past chapter 2 as a kid but enjoyed the game regardless.

[@REXX-STRONGSTYLE]

This game is one of the all-time hardest games

[@Zylo82]

Those question mark pickups always mess me up. Its such a gamble that they always blow me up causing damage making it way harder than it should be trying to beat the game.

[@moodybuddha]

This game was definitely not friendly to us little kids back then...I didn't even know how to do that aeroplane thing, lol

[@ReyShady05]

Damn dude. That's skill

[@kamikazechivalry1264]

I learned how to speedrun this game from your video. Thanks dude.

[@NikosKatsikanis]

Today I released an interview with Adrian Stephens, one of the creators of this game: learn.nikoskatsikanis.com/episodes/adrian-stephens I also talked to Howard Drossin: cafe.nikoskatsikanis.com/episodes/howard-drossin

[@battleathlete]

my expression @3:30 was just... Holy shit...

[@Max_Jacoby]

I'm surprised how many people find it difficult. For me it was an average difficulty game. Really hard game was a Battle Toads.

[@jacques4703]

I loved this game despite never finishing it. But that airplane is just OP

[@TheKrustaceox]

11:01 "We'll NUKE EVERYONE FROM THE PLANET!" *paper plane* -oh- -oh-

[@bradrenzi6318]

Whats really cool about this run through... Its so much faster than any of mine. And I think most people would consider me to be good at this game... But, I also think you can shave some time off this speed run. I think it could be done just a bit faster as you had some boss trouble in stage 2 and a few other bits where you got held up. But, by and large you are a smooth dedicated player.

[@TheOnlyMaizeCromwell]

3:28 Just, wow.

[@user-pv9pv4xf9c]

[@Ferelmakina]

how the hell did you grab a piece of paper and throw a paper plane towards the enemies???????

[@mecharichter]

Hold A.

[@Ferelmakina]

mecharichter​ man I've never known about that before... Even though I completed the game several times

[@TalkanianRetrogaming]

I never knew too

[@dipenponkia]

Me, too. I always loved this game, today Colossal Is Crazy brought the memories back.

[@Barrymccockiner41]

How do you do the move where he rams things with his shoulders?

[@madhatter8508]

What the fuck, did Sketch fart at the weapons plant?

[@thisisJim85]

I could never get past the flying enemies along the rope. I'd do good up until that part and then die very quickly; very, very quickly.

[@asmodeojung]

The ? item is random only the 1st time when you pick it, after that it's contents roll every time you duck. Once you have picked one ?, you can get any item you want in others.

[@mecharichter]

Wow really? I never knew that!

[@DigiEggz]

super useful, I'll keep that in mind.

[@EkksEkksEkks]

Can you be a bit more specific? As in, do you have to be in the same room with the "?" item? In which order do the items roll in? Does it reset when you die for the first time? (When you have extra lives)

[@asmodeojung]

Mr. Miguelacho it has been a while since i last played the game, but i think that the "?" contents is unique to each level or room. I just do not remember exactly. If you have an emulator with slots, you can test it.

[@user-dh6zx7xw9c]

i played this when I was 8 yrs old I never got passed the first stage but still had fun tho

[@the.internet]

This game is now 28 years old. Let that sink in, my friends...

[@BlueDog241]

weird,for some reason I thought there were four stages. there's only three. very short,very brutal game

[@mecharichter]

@TheSweetKnight You just press and hold A or whatever button you have attack set to.

[@the.internet]

Bloody hell, I had the PC port of this on my Windows 95 PC and somehow never knew you could do paper planes. I got very good at this game and loved it, but not sure if I ever made it passed level 3. Great to see it tamed!

[@MajorHD]

I never knew about the planes either man and played it as a kid on Sega Genesis. Out of atleast 1000 tries I only made it to level 4 like twice

[@leoMC4384]

I remember I beat this game without using that paper airplane. WTF?? 25 years after beating the game I had no idea that even existed.

[@Just_a_Lad]

Yeah, the way the plane killed that last bitch was superb.

[@jacobprice8048]

I have gotten to the last boss and never beat him. Never knew about the paper airplane attack until seeing this video

[@bradrenzi6318]

I use to be able to beat this game reliably when I was a kid in under 25 minutes. Yes, a few times I would flub a jump and die in a chapter 1 stage 1 or die at the end of level 2 stage 1... Some people say this game is hard... It is and it isn't. You just have to stick with it. It took me a couple of months to beat the game. But, since this is a game I consider to be one of the best on the console, wasn't really that much of a chore to stick with it. Plus each game play is unique due to the nature of the combat of the game. Enemies will block and behave just a bit different to keep you on your toes. When I started to replay this game I could get to Level 3 easily... Took me awhile to relearn the best route and strategy. And now I am back to beating the game easily in under 25 minutes.

[@MajorHD]

I never beat it as a kid because I didn't know about the paper airplanes. Now I know that it isn't hard at all. All I had to know about was a super special 1 hit weapon that insta kills bosses. Try to get to level 4 without paper airplanes

[@daveharttify]

I had this as a kid and never beat it. I did not know about the paper airplane.
